Wanted a scope that Would get out to a mile plus for my 300WM, the glass is crystal clear and has been flawless since I've owned it. And the no hassle Vortex VIP warranty and service department is top notch, I sctratched the sun shade and wanted to purchase a new one. The service person just asked for my address and said it's on its way...no charge! And this is the reason I run Vortex glass on all my rifles.

Extremely satisfied with this scope. By far the best optic I've ever owned. Vortex continues to amaze me.

I've had this scope on my 8mm Remington magnum for a few years now. It was my first venture into higher end optics and I couldn't be happier with it.

I’m using this for ELR shooting because it has a lot of elevation travel. I like the rubberized zoom adjustment. The turret is easy to read and adjust. The increments are perfect and easy to tell you dial up. The reticle makes follow shots with adjustment easy.

This optic was actually my first foree into the higher end scopes. I had been extremely impressed by the the Viper 6.5-20 PA, and wanted to move up. After seeing a video on Snipers Hide, where they effectively blew it up, I knew I had to have it. It has served me well over the years, and it's got some mileage!! The adjustments are tactile, the glass is phenomenal, and the bronze seems to blend well with every rifle I put it on. It currently sits atop my 6.5 CM, and with 36mils of elevation; it's a joy to reach out and ring steel.

I bought this scope about a year ago and have used it on my RPR in 6.5 creedmoor for long range shooting. I love the scope and it’s ability to track correctly when dialing for distance. The optics are clear and I love the zero stop turret. Also the ability to zero your rifle very precisely without having to use the 1/4 inch increments is nice. The only draw back I can see is the field of view at full zoom.

I have had this scope for 2 years now and it has never let me down. The tracking is spot on and the clarity makes spotting shots so much easier. Highly recommend this scope if you're looking to get into long range shooting.

Great optic. Edge to Edge clarity is amazing while scanning for targets. All knobs easy to adjust and rotate. The reticle is easy to understand and use.

Im using it as a second user. And...nothing:) still works good like new! Rifle AR10 with 20' barrel, and Razr gives me outstanding performance on field. Works as well on BR like style gun:)

This glass is far clearer than it deserves to be for the price. Excellent scope!

Just received one of these this morn, great looking optics and reticle can’t wait to get it mounted and start shooting. Love the colour which sets it apart from others black scopes, good set of accessories included.

Given that you can buy these with normal retail running in the $1300 range. And you can buy them used for close to $1100 range these are amazing optics for the price. The zero stop feature is a very useful, idiot-proof way to make sure you don't get a full revolution off when dialing your optic back down to your zero. I've been running this scope since September of 17 and it has been a real joy. I switched from a leupold mk 4 er/t 6.5-20. Having a larger adjustment range, 10mil revolutions and a much better ebr 2c reticle choice I was extremely pleased with the upgrade. Only reason I am getting rid of it is to upgrade to the Vortex AMG

This scope gives great performance for a relatively reasonable price. Glass is great, reticle is easy to use and quick to read, and the turrets adjustments are spot on. And with the warranty its a no-brainer

I had this Scope on 3 different rifles already, and now on Desert Tech SRS-A2 Covert .338 Lapua Magnum, trying to hit steel plate at 3520 yds. (2 Mile with the help of the Cold Shot MOAB.

I have been running the RZR HD for a few years now. Lets just say every shooter around me now owns Razor's. Hand down best optic out there and has been the most reliable over years of use and abuse.

Scope has been excellent. As the title says, I purchased two and have one mounted on my 6mm creedmore ruger precision and one on my custom Remington700 7mm. Both have performed flawlessly in tracking, resets, and long distance shots.

I have just about every name brand high dollar scope and this scope is beyond one of the best for half the money

I've had this scope for many years now and is easily my favorite scope. I have had it on multiple rifles and it still works great! I've even used it in an NRL match shooting out to 1200yds. I would definitely buy another one.

I have had this optic for approximately 2 years now. It is sitting on a custom built .308 bolt gun. Man let me just say this scope does not disappoint. I am a police sniper and have access to virtually any optic I choose but I requested this one for my issue rifle after buying the one I own personally. It is rugged reliable and has all the necessary features like illuminated reticle and a great zero stop. The Glass is superb and oh so crystal clear! I love the finish on the optic which goes well with virtually and tactical color scheme. The adjustments on the turrets are audible and positive. Target ranging with the reticle is super simple and fast. I could go on and on but I'll end this by saying Just buy this scope it will not disappoint!

I have been using this scope for competition shooting and hunting for about 6 years now. This scope has never let me done, always tracks correctly, durable and has never been to the shop and has been my go to scope for years. She is the workhorse and now i use it for Extreme Long Range matches.

This scope is top tier. It has Sharp glass, crisp turrets, a zero stop, killer illuminated reticle. It tracks well, and is built like a tank. Hard to find a better scope for any price.

I’ve run the Mil model for over 5 years. Beating on it and putting it through competition and practice alongside scopes of higher price and accolades. I’ve been tempted and lured by others, but I could never find anything better. The reticle, the turrets, the clarity, the price, the warranty. Don’t be fooled by the glitz and glam. This is all that is required!!!

Currently own 3 different Vortex scopes. This is my favorite. I have it on a 300Wm. I have no issues and love the clarity and ffp! Would definitely recommend.

Got the Razor Gen1 a few years ago and it's been on a handful of rifles and calibers over the years and it's rock solid. It's got a little wear and tear and still is crystal clear and reliable as the day I bought it. It's been loaned out for people to try and on ARs and bolt guns.... Mounted in rings and cantilever mounts... just works. All the time. Best bang for your buck scope in the price range. Can't get any better features and clarity.

Bought one after I tried Nightforce. The glass is definitely better than the NSX model.

I bought my gen 1 razor a few months back and have been blown away by the quality of the glass and the tracking. I’ve ran somewhere in the ballpark of 7-800 rounds through my 300wm without any issues. It’s been dialed up to 81 moa for targets at 1900yds then back to zero and was dead on 200 on multiple occasions and have only had to reset zero stop once due to using a different bullet and wanted the zero to be at 100yds. Only thing that I would change about this scope well two things wish the scope had a little more magnification like the gen 2 but still had 125 moa of adjustment and that the magnification dial had a lever of some sort from the factory both of these are fairly minor issues and I wouldn’t even hesitate recommending this scope to someone

True Work Horse
By Nick D.
Ill start with the not so great.... after a few thousand rounds on top of a hot loaded 300wm match rifle and being bounced around the desert at hike and shoot matches, some of the internals of the turret came loose a week before the out of state trip. Now the positives.... the customer service was insane and the fine people at vortex were able to walk me step by step to fix it without sending it in. This scope has been on more of my rifles than I can count, not because I can't find a good...

Great Clarity
By d430kep
Bought this scope for my Savage 12 LRP and love it. The adjustments track well and the clarity is awesome. No problems reaching out to 1,000 yd. targets at the range or shooting 600 yd. 1/2 MOA matches
